Sorry for posting boo hoo stories here, but I've just been let go.
Have been working for a large construction company for last nine years
creating and managing c# development, Sq Server database (also
developed by myself). Worked in VB6 at first, then vb.net before
converting to c# completely around 2004. The company is failing to win
a single bid for new work, and since they have no new jobs coming
online, developing software to manage such work became a very low
priority (read: NO priority at all).

I'm in the South San Jose, CA area, and have posted to this group a
few times over the last few years. Do any of you have insight into
what the best websites are for posting resume's? Besides Dice of
course. Or of what industry is most likely not suffering attrition as
bad as most others? I have five mouths to feed, I'm more than a bit
worried. I've been intending to get away from anything construction-
related for several years, but now I'm really caught at just the wrong
time.

Thanks, sorry for the off post. Bob Graham
 
I apologize again. Was only hoping a kind soul or two might weigh in
on where I ought to go to find the right kind of advice on how/where
to dig around.

Yup, that's off-topic here.  Sorry about the news, but this isn't the  
right place for a job search.  No doubt your experience seems uniquely  
awful to you, but there are lots of other people in the same situation.  
If they all posted here looking for a job, it'd be impossible to find the 
actual programming questions.

He was not asking for a job, he was asking for a Job website. If such a
topic cannot be discussed here I think that is very sad. Unfortunately I
cannot offer any useful info myself as I am not in the US but hopefully
someone else can.
